box, and then tried to un-tar it, but got a "checksum error". Has anyone
else had problems like these??? (I had Dave send me the files again and I
got the same result, so I'm assuming the problem is on my end.)

I've also got Dave's flame effect and had no problems. Built fine and
looks great. I'd say the problem is definitely at your end...

Trying skipping the "mailtool" and extracting the parts by hand...
